Weekly Digest: April 2, 2016

Another month has come to a close, and believe it or not, one-quarter of the year has passed. This weekend would be the ideal time for you to conduct a quarterly review to determine whether or not you’re on-track with your music career goals.

A week is too short, and a year is too long a time to measure your goals by. 90 days, on the other hand, is just right. I would encourage you to create an appointment with yourself to review your progress.

In any case, let’s get into this week’s highlights.
